The USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series has produced nine different
race winners in nine events so far and a 10th could emerge when the
series makes its first 2007 visit this Saturday to USA Race Park in
Tucson, Ariz. A 30-lap feature event is on tap at the 3/8-mile dirt oval.

Damion Gardner and Jesse Hockett won last year's two races
at Tucson, but neither has won in this year's USAC/CRA competition. Both
are expected to compete in this season's USAC National Sprint Car Series
campaign.

Cory Kruseman of Ventura, Calif. became the ninth different
series winner Saturday at Kings Speedway in Hanford, Calif. He led all
but the first lap to win the 20-lapper in his Agromin Soil/Sander
Engineering Bullet/Mopar. He passed teammate Michael Trimble on lap two
and led the rest of the way to beat Tyler Brown, Scotty Weir, Rickie
Gaunt and Davey Pombo. Fast qualifier Charles Davis Jr. escaped injury in
a flip during the feature.

The victory left Kruseman ninth in the new series standings
behind point leader Tony Jones, who finished sixth at Hanford. Jones has
a 62-point lead over Darren Hagen going into Saturday's Tucson race.
